Mythology Revisited #1 [Re-uhh, Re-something]
More analogies:
1.Aquaman - Poseidon (Greek) or Neptune (Roman). The God of the Sea, how fucking more obvious can it get? Damn, shoulda gotten that one on first attempt. "I'm feeling lucky" also tells me that Poseidon was also lord of earthquakes. Therefore the recent earthquake/tsunami that "changed the map of Asia and affected the axis of the Earth" was a direct expression of his wrath. Lastly, Poseidon is the supreme badass god of *ahem* ... horses. What an anticlimax :p
2.Batman - Dracula? There's a sad elseworlds called "Red Rain" that deals with this, that I read at Ramprasad's place. In fact, it was so bad that Ramprasad didn't even want to take it to the new flat when he was shifting.
3.Swamp Thing - The Ents of Fangorn Forest? *prepares himself to get flamed by Abhijeet* Just a wild guess, but there is at least a physical resemblance *shrugs*

Swamp Thing doesn't have anything more than a passing resemblence to the Ents. The are as different as cheese and chalk. Bad comparison there.
And do you really consider Tolkein's work as mythology?
